This is False. The y intercept is given by the value b.
Answer:
h = 22 units
Step-by-step explanation:
area = 1/2bh
165 = 1/2(15)h
15h = 330
h = 22 units
Answer:
Yes, she is Correct
Step-by-step explanation:
I could prove this through writing the exponential equation that resembles this equation, but it's simpler than that:
It mentions that the population would be half of what it was before (a decade before). Now it is safe to say that every exponential (not decaying) equation gradually increases so that every value differs from it's consecutive value through multiplication of a constant.
<em>That is why, given the population would be half of what it was before, 0.5 acts as the 'constant' and the word problem can be modeled by an exponential graph + exponential function.</em>
Complete question is;
A skull cleaning factory cleans animal skulls and other types of animals using flesh eating Beatles. The factory owner started with only 13 adult beetles.
After 35 days, the beetle population grew to 26 adult beetles. How long did it take before the beetle population was 13,000 beetles?
Answer:
349 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Initial amount of adult beetles; A_o = 13
Amount of adult beetles after 35 days; A_35 = 26
Thus can be solved using the exponential formua;
A_t = A_o × e^(kt)
Where A_t is the amount after time t, t is the time and k is a constant.
Plugging in the relevant values;
26 = 13 × e^(35k)
e^(35k) = 26/13
e^(35k) = 2
35k = In 2
35k = 0.6931
k = 0.6931/35
k = 0.0198
Now,when the beetle population is 12000,we can find the time from;
13000 = 13 × e^(k × 0.0198)
e^(k × 0.0198) = 13000/13
e^(k × 0.0198) = 1000
0.0198k = In 1000
0.0198k = 6.9078
k = 6.9078/0.0198
k ≈ 349 days.
It's how far a number is from 0.
( ex.) 6 is 6 away from 0 but so is -6; so the absolute value of 6 is 6 and the absolute value of -6 is 6. the symbol "|" is placed on either side to mean absolute value.
(ex.2) |-6| = 6. -|-6|= -6. |6|=6. and -|6|= -6.
if the negative sign is outside of the symbol then the number will always be negative but if there is no negative sign outside of the symbol it will always be positive, even if it looks lile this. |-6| it would still be positive.
